Couldn't help but notice some of the welds around me from 7018 weave cap passes that date back to the 70s and some TIG passes that look pure robotic. Never get to see the light of day.

This rig was hauling concrete blocks, & made more than 1 trip! Two blocks per load. My estimate, about 15K a piece. Last time I saw [& Did] anything like that, was when Westinghouse was installing a new lathe! This guy was in the Trane, area, but I doubt they have any 6' thick floors!

He shouldn't be carrying that much weight in a 30 yard tub container, those things are crap with brick or concrete in it. I've got 5 or 6 here that customers used for that and you can see where every piece of concrete was sitting by the punctures in the side of the cans.

I understand the concern. The container looks New, & the 2 blocks, are cut to fit with probably 6 " clearance on each side, & guided by the angle at the bottom of the container. So they should't turn or twist. I could see the slide marks in the box. He let the box down to the ground, & then I think a Loader helped pull them out. Ones I hauled before were loaded into a barrel dump trailer. Once they started to slide out, all I could do was try to roll forward & let them drop! LOOK OUTTTT!

I'm the Ops Manager for a container company. Deal with this stuff everyday.
